Conceptualized and organized by the institute’s academic clubs in collaboration with the Students’ Affairs Committee, YUKTI will bring together industry leaders, academicians, policymakers, and students for focused dialogue on leadership, strategy, and societal responsibility.

The conclave will feature Mr. Bharat Panchal, Chief Risk and Regulatory Officer, APAC and the Middle East at Discover Financial Services, as the Chief Guest, and Mr. Ankit Fatehpuria, Co-Founder and Chief Financial Officer, Zetwerk, as the Guest of Honour.
Theme: Dharma Niti — Strategy Anchored in Ethics
The central theme of YUKTI 3.0, Dharma Niti, underscores the belief that strategy and ethics are not opposing forces but complementary pillars of sustainable leadership. Rooted in Indian philosophical thought, Dharma Niti emphasizes decision-making that balances ambition with responsibility, growth with fairness, and innovation with accountability. The conclave explores how leaders can navigate uncertainty, evolving consumer expectations, governance complexities, and socio-economic transitions while remaining anchored in moral clarity and long-term value creation.
Interdisciplinary Panel Discussions
The two-day conclave will host engaging panel discussions on:
- Kartavya Niti – Duty-centric leadership and ethical governance.
- Bhartiya Utthaan – India’s economic resurgence driven by innovation and self-reliance.
- Saam Daam Dand Bhed – Strategic decision-making in complex stakeholder environments.
These discussions aim to connect timeless strategic frameworks with contemporary business realities.
Director’s Message
Speaking on the occasion, Prof. Sanjeev Prashar, Director-In-Charge, IIM Raipur, said, “YUKTI 3.0 is a matter of great pride for IIM Raipur, as it exemplifies our commitment to developing leaders who combine sharp strategic thinking with strong ethical grounding… By anchoring this edition in Dharma Niti, we reaffirm our focus on building future-ready leaders who can navigate complexity with responsibility, purpose, and vision.”
Experiential Learning through Boardroom Simulation
A key highlight of YUKTI 3.0 is the Boardroom Simulation, an immersive experiential learning initiative that places participants in real-world corporate decision-making scenarios. By assuming CXO-level roles and engaging with complex cases, students gain hands-on exposure to boardroom dynamics, strategic problem-solving, and leadership under pressure — reinforcing YUKTI’s philosophy of learning by doing.
Diverse Participation from Industry and Academia
YUKTI 3.0 will also host a distinguished array of industry leaders, corporate executives, policy influencers, sustainability professionals, and academic experts across sectors such as technology, finance, manufacturing, consulting, human resources, operations, and public policy. Their collective perspectives enrich the discourse on modern leadership challenges and opportunities.
YUKTI — A Movement for Responsible Leadership
More than just a conclave, YUKTI represents a movement toward reflective strategy and responsible leadership. It seeks to inspire future managers to think beyond short-term gains and contribute to resilient organizations, inclusive growth, and a more equitable economy.
